  2. Fullerene chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fullerene_chemistry

    Fullerene chemistry is a field of organic chemistry devoted to the chemical properties of fullerenes. [1] [2] [3] Research in this field is driven by the need to functionalize fullerenes and tune their properties. For example, fullerene is notoriously insoluble and adding a suitable group can enhance solubility. [1]

    Fullerenes had been predicted for some time, but only after their accidental synthesis in 1985 were they detected in nature [3] [4] and outer space. [5] [6] The discovery of fullerenes greatly expanded the number of known allotropes of carbon, which had previously been limited to graphite, diamond, and amorphous carbon such as soot and charcoal.

  4. Endohedral fullerene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endohedral_fullerene

    Besides unfilled fullerenes, endohedral metallofullerenes develop with different cage sizes like La@C 60 or La@C 82 and as different isomer cages. Aside from the dominant presence of mono-metal cages, numerous di-metal endohedral complexes and the tri-metal carbide fullerenes like Sc 3 C 2 @C 80 were also isolated. In 1999 a discovery drew ...

    They found that those with 2(n+1) 2 π-electrons could display aromatic properties, as spherical molcular orbitals are filled when there are 2(n+1) 2 π-electrons for some positive integer n. For example, in buckminsterfullerene (C 60 ) this happens for the species C 60 10+ , which has 50 π-electrons: 50/2 = 25, which is a perfect square .

    These endohedral fullerenes are usually synthesized by doping in the metal atoms in an arc reactor or by laser evaporation. These methods gives low yields of endohedral fullerenes, and a better method involves the opening of the cage, packing in the atoms or molecules, and closing the opening using certain organic reactions. This method ...

    C 60 in solution C 60 in extra virgin olive oil showing the characteristic purple color of pristine C 60 solutions. The solubility of fullerenes is generally low. Carbon disulfide dissolves 8g/L of C60, and the best solvent (1-chloronaphthalene) dissolves 53 g/L. up Still, fullerenes are the only known allotrope of carbon that can be dissolved in common solvents at room temperature.
